I'm using the CAN_NODE app in my code. I ran across the MULTICAN_CONFIG app, but can't find why to one over the other.
It appears that MULTICAN_CONFIG can deal with Gateway mode.
I'm not using Gateway mode, but do use multiple CAN nodes (up to 6 on the XMC4700).

Hi,

One of the limitations of the CAN_NODE APP is that it supports only up to 32 MOs.

In general the CONFIG APPs gives you better control over all the options the peripheral offers.
The config will only generate the configuration structures used by the XMCLib and an initialization function.
You will need to use to use the functions provided by XMCLib to access to the peripheral functionality.

Jesus
